For some reason these were so hard for me to find, almost 200 hours into ES2, albeit these are on the dev's youtube channel. I wouldnt want anyone to miss out, were I not the only oblivious one! These cinematics are extraordinarily deep into the backgrounds of the Sophons and the Vodyani, the likes of which cannot be found in-game, on the wiki, or g2g (that I know of). Are there any more faction specific cinematics/vids Im missing (not the intros/outros/dust trailer)? I encourage so much more of this, but I appretiate the substanial (ok, COLOSSAL!) work AMP has already put into this universe that has become quite an obsession for us all. Its rich, but hell Im craving it.

QUESTION 2 

Is there an art book??? ($$$) To include early concpet art and in-game faction/quest art.

Q1. Definitely check out all the trailers on their youtube page (though I'll assume you've seen these) like the Amplified Reality trailer, etc. 

Q2. As far as I know, the Endless Space 2 Artbook will be released later, probably after all (or most) of the DLC's are released, as this was the case for ES1, DotE, & EL 

Hope this helped !

I remember that those two videos where shawn (on the official website of ES2 if I remember correctly) in a veri interesting way. You could use your mouse to change the video and swith between the two vision and since the musics and the visuals where in sync with eachover it worked so well. But I didn't find a way to see them that way anymore ...

And yeah the artbook will come ... in some years.

They were on our bespoke website, endless-space.com, but we switched the trailers over to the Pathfinders trailer. It is true that those are fantastic trailers, we're looking into ways we could highlight them again, or at least make them more visible to all.

Quick sidetrack question, does anyone know if the music for the vision trailers is on the soundtrack? That being said I would buy an artbook, the Endless Space 1 artbook was gorgeous and had lots of extra lore.

I think it's a remix of the faction themes. I'll check with FlybyNo when he's in the office next.

Would it be possible to patch them in the game itself under "extras" menu or something?
